Schiacciatine di Agnello e Patate sulle Brace
- 3 fat cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
- 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh rosemary leaves
- 1 tablespoon coarse sea salt
- 2 ounces pancetta
- 1 pound lamb, cut from the leg, finely minced
- 5 ounces fresh pork fat, ground
- 1 small, dried red chile pepper, crushed, or 1/3 to 1/2 teaspoon dried chile flakes
- 4 medium red- or white-skinned potatoes, boiled in sea-salted water until tender, peeled and mashed
- 1 1-inch stick of cinnamon, ground
- 1/3 cup dry white wine
- Extra-virgin olive oil
- With a mezzaluna or a very sharp knife, mince the garlic, rosemary, sea salt, and pancetta together to make a paste.
- In a large bowl, combine the paste with all the other ingredients save the wine and the olive oil, mixing them, kneading them with your hands, urging them into a fine, fragrant mixture.
- At the last, add the wine, blending it in thoroughly.
- Cover the mixture tightly with plastic wrap and permit its flavors to develop and mature overnight.
- Shape the mixture into oval sausages, 3 inches long and 1 1/2 inches thick.
- Brush them lightly with the oil and roast them over the red/white embers of a wood fire.
- Pan-sauteed in olive oil, they are nearly as good.
